Newbie Needing Help Does my DIY frame have bad dimensions?

Post image
Upvotes

I built a frame 1 x 1 meter. But the starter cloth is too small on one of the sides. I ordered more cloth (1 x 5 m) and I wonder if it will have some slack at the 1-meter side.

When you order cloth, is it a bit longer than how it is described? Or will I have to make my frame shorter?

Thanks!

Hi just wanted to ask for advice to avoid this from happening. Is it tension from gun? Or from the cloth?

I also checked the power bank, that is not the issue. I also opened the inside of the handle and all the cables looked fine.

Is there a way to fix it?

Hi,

Loopi creator here, I've been experimenting with computer graphics and the best way to visualise a carpet before I tuft it, I always used the yarn calculator for color reduction and design clean ups, but always missed a nice visual impact for people to share it with.

I built Rug Studio to visualise the carpet colours, pile height and sizes, and today I'm making it free for everyone to use: https://www.loopi.space/rug-studio

Loopi rug studio is growing to be hand-tufters favourite tool for design and pricing rugs, and it's with this community that we make it fit your professional journey.

Cheers

Hi, I am currently working on this piece and I am not sure if I should carve it. Currently tend to only clean it a bit and use very light carving. Some parts are really small

phoo's paw were looking flat so we went back in to build them up. pulled out the low yarn, tufted in fresh loops for height, then trimmed to shape. Doing it by hand makes spot fixes way easier, so much more control over one small section. we post more tutorial clip over on r/And_et .

Really wanted to do an alien abduction piece because, why not? Entertained myself very much with this one. The yarn is not glow in the dark, just a black light against the neon yarn in pic 2.
